The ones up here (Aberdeen) have the capacity to go to 199 on the display so not much will trouble them.

It probably says "You are going 99MPH please slow down"
Or the world ends.

When I went past one once it went to -- after 49mph. I guess it would depend on what the maximum range is for checking a car's speed for the maximum speed it can display.

They max out at a certine number.

30MPH one displayed a flashing "40" when 40mph was exceeded.

It's only what i've beent told. Not from personal experience. cop

Well, what happens [note the lack of the letter D] when you travel over 100mph passed one...well, I don't know.

Why don't you try it, and then come back and post your results?

I have absolutly never, ever, ever spent a very enjoyable 35 minutes on a normally 50 limit road very late at night trying to get exactly 99mph on a temporary one of these signs. Why do i know i have never done it, because it would be naughty, highly illegal and stupid.
